Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy Chapter 632

Chapter 632: Chapter 625: Knight God Chapter 632: Chapter 625: Knight God A new day.

The sun shines high in the sky, a beam of sunlight pouring through the window, perfectly landing on the sleeping youth, making him look exceptionally valiant.

“Wake up, young warrior Lu Bu.”

“Am I still dreaming?”

“Giggle, did you forget what you did yesterday? You made the bandits flee with your archery and then fainted from overexertion.”

Pharmacist Lina walked in with a tray from the doorway, seeing the youth staring blankly as if not yet fully awake, she couldn't help but greet him.

“So it wasn't a dream,” Lu Bu muttered softly.

“That's not entirely true.” Lina covered her mouth and laughed: “You did dream last night, you talked in your sleep quite a lot, saying something about the First Ram Horn Warrior, the Legendary Knight, and more—”
“Sister Lina, sleep talking isn't real, it's nonsense, you you you can't take it seriously.”

The youth was so flustered by his words that he scrambled up, gesticulating and explaining, his face turning red.

“Giggle, I know.” Lina understood the youth's bashfulness and considerately changed the subject: “Go ahead, eat. You need to fill up so everyone can admire your heroism. Many people came to visit yesterday, but I turned them away.”

“Thank you.”

Lu Bu didn't stand on ceremony, striding over and eating voraciously.

Seeing the youth's anxious manners, Lina chuckled and leaned in to help him sort out his food.

“No need, no need—thank you, Sister Lina.”

Lu Bu was too embarrassed to have the elder pharmacist sister wait on him, but he didn't know how to refuse and ate his meal with an even redder face, looking as if he was choking.

Shortly after, the youth hurried out of the room.

This pharmacy was an important place within the tribe, larger than a typical dwelling. He passed through several doors and entered a small sunlit medicinal herb drying yard, where he spotted a familiar figure from afar.

“Captain, you're awake.”

Stretching his limbs on the side was none other than Gos, captain of the fifth hunting team. The youth's eyes brightened, and he quickly ran over.

“You've slept for so long; it's about time you woke up. Pharmacist Lina told me it was you who healed my wounds. Thank you, Lu Bu.” Gos had been lying down for many days, the main injury already healed, but his body was still weak and needed time to recover.

“Captain, please don't say that. If it weren't for saving me, you would never have lost to that Windclaw Tiger, I—”
“I also heard that, Lu Bu, with just three arrows, you subdued the bandits, made those vicious bandits scramble in panic. Not bad, not bad. You've really raised the prestige of our fifth team.”

“Who said that? It wasn't that exaggerated.”

“Ha ha ha.”

As they talked, many people just happened to enter the herb drying yard from the main entrance and immediately noticed the two of them.

It turned out to be the Clan Leader and a group of elders from the tribe.

“Clan Leader, elders.”

“Lu Bu, Gos, you're both awake.” The Clan Leader signaled for them not to stand on formality, quickly approaching with several people: “We didn't want to disturb your recovery at this time, but there are some important matters that we must confirm.”

“Clan Leader, I'm not injured.” Lu Bu immediately declared.

“Alright, let's go inside to talk.” The Ram Horn Clan Leader suggested.

Naturally, no one objected, and the group moved to a larger room within the pharmacy. Now two pharmacists from the pharmacy also followed, one elderly pharmacist and the young pharmacist Lina.

“Lu Bu, you don't mind discussing what power you used yesterday, do you?” The Clan Leader asked with a serious tone.

“It was the power of Combat Energy.” For some reason, faced with so many eyes, young Lu Bu wasn't anxious; he answered steadily.

“The holy fighting spirit of humans?” The Clan Leader frowned slightly.

“No, it should be the Black Star Fighting Spirit; I don't know if it's different from the human's holy fighting spirit.” Lu Bu shook his head and spoke honestly.

“Where did it come from?”

“The Knight God bestowed it.”

“The Knight God?”

“Yes, the great Knight God.”

Looking into the young man's eyes brimming with passion, the Clan Leader and the rest exchanged glances, somewhat at a loss. They knew Lu Bu well–he was a youth born and raised within the tribe. How did he come into contact with such a lofty divine being?

But the reality was right in front of them, and they had no choice but to believe.

Lu Bu didn't ponder too much; he started from his own frustrations, talking about how he discovered the Divine Statue his father had hidden, how he prayed to the deity, how he passed the divine test, how he gained his power, and about what a knight is, and so forth.

He was straightforward and, without waiting for others to question further, he laid everything out.

“Knight's page, Knight, Great Knight, so you're now a Great Knight, and you control five Combat Energy traits: Sheep's Jump, Bear Power, Eagle's Eye, Bat's Ear, Water Dew.”

“Mhm, the accurate term should be 'Bat's Eyes' because bats are blind. Also, I used 'Water Dew' to heal Captain Gos.”

During the magnificent trials by the Knight God, Lu Bu underwent a very lengthy experience, learning many things he never knew before.

He didn't notice himself, but his speech had become more fluent and substantial than before; others, however, picked up on it.

“Are there really two realms above a Great Knight?”

“Of course, after Great Knight, there are Earth Knight and Flying Knight, which are legendary stages. Following Legendary Knight is the Knight sub-king, and ultimately the unparalleled Knight King.”

Lu Bu's words were firm and resonated through the room.

His words were convincing, making some involuntarily swallow, clearly shaken by the power he described.

After all, the Mad Beast Kingdom, situated in the Frost Song Highlands, lies in the remote northern part of the Fertile Continent, and the ground beneath–Frozen Bone Wilderness–being even more desolate, was chosen as a place of exile.

Not only are the winters here long, but after the earth revives, sometimes wind disasters occur. Strong winds sweep away the rain, causing droughts that last for months.

Undoubtedly, resources here are always scarce, including for the Ram-Horned tribe.

In such conditions, even though the people of the Frozen Bone Wilderness are valiant, it is exceptionally hard to nurture any remarkable figures.

Judging by Lu Bu's performance yesterday, with his unique strength, he could already be considered one of the tribe's top warriors. His cultivation seems to have only started recently, with many more profound realms ahead.

How could this not excite the other Ram-Horned people!

“Lu Bu, are you willing to teach the power of Knighthood to our tribe members?”

After a while, the Clan Leader posed the question everyone was most concerned about.

“I'm willing, but I have one condition.”

“Please speak, everyone will surely want to listen to you.”

“Before imparting the power, everyone must join me in praying to the great Knight God, sincerely praying for at least three days and three nights, to show gratitude to the Divine for granting us this power.”

“No problem.”

The Clan Leader glanced at the people beside him and nodded without hesitation.

The Frozen Bone Wilderness is a land of abandonment; they are all descendants of criminals, ignored by the kingdom, let alone other deities, so there were no conflicts of faith.

Now that they were under the care of the Knight God, they had no reason not to agree.

Seeing everyone's agreement, Lu Bu kept his word.

In the following days, he led a group of tribe members to pray before the Divine Statue of the Knight God; after several days of prayer, he taught them the force known as 'Black Star Fighting Spirit.'
Time passed day by day.

Some Ram-Horned people were naturally sturdy, and upon adopting the systematic Knighthood cultivation method, they quickly formed the Life Seed, leaping from knight's page to official Knight.

By this time, the tribe's fortress had proudly erected a statue of the Knight God, located right at the heart of the fortress.

Lu Bu's small statue was concealed within the central statue, acting as the heart of this Divine Statue.

As time went by, the Ram-Horned tribe saw the rise of a second and third Great Knight, namely the captain of the fifth hunt squad, Gos, and the beauty Pharmacist Lina from the medicine hall.

However, the two Great Knights' Combat Energies only had one trait, far less than the first Great Knight, Lu Bu.

In this regard, no one harbored doubts, since Lu Bu was unique. Without his sincerity touching the great Knight God, they would not have the current method of Knighthood cultivation.

It was only natural that he received the blessing of the deity.

When the Ram-Horned tribe produced a sixth Great Knight, under the impetus of passing down his power, Lu Bu was promoted to the legendary stage of Earth Knight, which underscored his uniqueness.

Before long, Lu Bu led the Ram-Horned people to wipe out bandits who targeted their tribe, leaving only a tenth of them alive.

The Ram-Horned tribe's reputation became unrivaled for a time, echoing throughout the entire Frozen Bone Wilderness. The name of Lu Bu was known to all, as many people came to the Ram-Horned fortress, hoping for protection.

Of course, these people also hoped to receive the gift of power.

As the name of the tribe spread wider and more people came to join, the Ram-Horned had no choice but to build an outer city beyond the fortress.

After some more time, led by Lu Bu, the Black Star Fighting Spirit was passed on to a portion of the beastmen who came to join.

As time went on, the Fighting Spirit prospered ever more, and the number of beastmen who worshiped the Knight God grew. It spread almost across the entire Frozen Bone Wilderness.

No one knew that the Knight God, whom everyone worshipped, was nurturing within the central statue of the Ram-Horned people, with a form already shaping and divine power growing stronger each day.

At this rate, the day when the Knight God would descend upon the world was not far off.
